Thanks for writing this post, Stephen! I have been trying to show clients how great LinkedIn ads can be, but it is tough for them to see the importance when some of them aren't even on LinkedIn. I do agree that it is more for B2B companies which makes complete sense. For non-B2B clients, do you still see an advantage in LinkedIn ads over Facebook?

Great post! I have run into the Pinterest situation you wrote about for many of the social media sites because people will see that they are getting referrals from those sites, but not many conversions so they don't see the point.

How do you suggest kindly showing the importance of some sites that do have a lot of referrals and conversions without being too in their face about it?

Great article, Zeph! Just a few questions. I am starting to do some International SEO for a few of my clients. What do you do if machine translation is the only way you can translate? Because I am doing 12+ languages and it is nearly impossible to have someone personally translate all the keywords in those keywords.

Also, is it a good idea to just straight translate your English keywords to the other languages?

Do you suggest using Google translate if having translated pages on your site? Or is there a better way of going about doing that? I know that Google translate can't always be trusted, but I haven't found any better source.

Very, very helpful post! I have been trying to help a client get a link penalty removed, but Google just won't budge. I submitted a few reconsideration requests after doing almost a complete link profile disavow and contacting the sites. Your Google doc recommendation is one that made the process very smooth. I think the issue I am running into is that the majority of these spammy links are from spam comments, back when that wasn't so frowned upon.
